Abstract (en)

One example discloses a near-field wireless device, including: a near-field antenna having a first conductive surface and a second conductive surface; wherein the conductive surfaces are configured to carry non-propagating quasi-static near-field electro-induction (NFEI) signals; a tuning circuit coupled to the near-field antenna and having a set of tuning parameters; a controller coupled to the tuning circuit; wherein the controller is configured to monitor a loading of the near-field antenna; wherein the controller is configured to adjust the tuning parameters if the loading is different from a preselected loading; and wherein the controller is configured to set a user present status in response to a predefined threshold change in the set of tuning parameters.
